Why?
What?
They’re simple questions. But they’re also a very important questions, and they should be asked at the outset of every event:
Why are you holding this event?
What exactly do you want your team to gain from taking part in this event?
If the answer to this question is that you’re holding the event just for fun and a bit of team bonding then the range of options are endless. You could have your team take part in the Out of Office Olympics or have them pick up some very useful Circus Skills, for example.

Whilst the concept of virtual is anything but new, 2020 was of course a year of substantial and rapid change for everyone and everything. Especially so when it comes to team building.
Because of the massive societal changes, we’ve had to rethink some of our existing events and invent some brand new ones. And we’ve created some great new virtual team building activities.
Using our decades of experience and ability to think on our feet, we have swiftly adapted to offer a range of over 25 different virtual events and experiences to suit all tastes and objectives. Crucially, all of these events have the same important goal: to enable your employees to stay connected and engaged during the pandemic.

With the UK’s unpredictable climate and a large number of event venues having little or no outdoor space for activities, there are many advantages to holding your activity indoors.
If you have a tight schedule, for example, holding your team building activity indoors gives you an extra level of stability when it comes to the weather. It also allows you to have a fast turnaround, enabling you to better use your allotted time.

But, if you would like the option to switch indoors if the weather does not do as you hoped, then our optional Wet Weather Contingency will keep you and your team in the warm and dry, even if the worst does happen and it starts to rain.

Each ice breaker is designed to complement your conference programme and ensures that it delivers the maximum benefit to you and your team or guests.
Invigorate your guests by giving them the opportunity to benefit from a break in the conference schedule, refocus their concentration and get to know their colleagues in a cooperative environment with a Conference Energiser — a short, sharp cooperative activity designed to get your delegates on their feet, energise them and put their concentration back on track.
